Yes, here have wrath and peace together met—
Justice and Mercy sweetly have embraced;
For, o’er the terrors of the angry floods,
The bow of promise and of beauty hangs:
When in the sunbeams, with its matchless hues,
Or as a silver arch on evening’s brow,
Saying, “God’s works are marvellous and great,
But ah! when understood, his name is Love.”
